Zepp Posted October 25, 2020 Share Posted October 25, 2020 It seems that passive procs (that's my guess) are resulting in the Present Opening animation playing. Is anyone else experiencing this?

CrudeVileTerror Posted October 25, 2020 Share Posted October 25, 2020 I heard some people complaining about constantly having their movement stopped by their character spontaneously playing a confetti emote. Sounds related. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Replacement Posted October 25, 2020 Share Posted October 25, 2020 @Zepp Did this happen on a character that was not a /ninja blaster? It's a thing for them - specifically, the Shinobi toggle is probably doing it. Please post if you were getting it in a different circumstance.

Replacement Posted October 25, 2020 Share Posted October 25, 2020 (edited) Additional Info: If it's what I think it is, you will find yourself stopping to pop confetti when under the effect of many "granted" powers - but ONLY while Shinobi is active. Example scenarios that will result in you playing the emote: Activating Inner Inspiration Crossing into the region of a Day Job You may also receive it when entering certain neighborhood or badge volumes.

Ulysses Dare Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 I just spent a few minutes testing this one. I can confirm that when Shinobi is active entering into a tram, Wentworths, or the vicinity of a base portal will trigger the present opening emote. As will using Inner Inspiration. Activating Shinobi once inside those areas does not trigger the present opening emote. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zepp Posted October 26, 2020 Author Share Posted October 26, 2020 It was likely Shinobi related.

Saikochoro Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 (edited) I am most definitely experiencing this on my archery/ninja blaster on test. I have shinobi toggled on. It happens every single time I activate aim. It also happens every time I load into a zone. I tried turning toggle off and then back on and it still opens the confetti every time I use aim. If I untoggle shinobi the bug does not occur when activating aim. It also has happened several times during a fight even when I don’t activate aim. Haven’t been able to pinpoint other causes, but I have noticed it happens a lot when switching between katana and arrow attacks in quick succession.

Replacement Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 Please pause to appreciate how hilarious and ironic it is that the stealthy ninja power is resulting in confetti and noise. Ninja Surprise bug is best bug. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pzn Posted October 27, 2020 Share Posted October 27, 2020 Happening to me as well. Seems to happen when I activate aim or any incarnate abilities while shinobi is toggled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just had a character start doing it every time they zone. not sure what triggered it. it hasn't happened on my other characters yet If someone posts a reply quoting me and I don't reply, they may be on ignore.

But the fact that I have them on ignore won't stop some of them from bullying and harassing people, because some of them love to do it. There is a group that have banded together to target forum posters they don't like. They think that this behavior is acceptable. Ignore (in the forums) and /ignore (in-game) are tools to improve your gaming experience. Don't feel bad about using them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saikochoro Posted October 28, 2020 Share Posted October 28, 2020 I did the standard mission testing AE missing with my archery/ninja blaster and this bug kept going off at random times. I even made sure not to use aim at all because I know that causes the bug. The bug still happened a lot though. I do have several procs in passives such as numina’s, miracle, power transfer, and performance shifter. Not sure if it relates to those. The bug is making it very difficult to actually test the power. Though I’m glad we have this testing period to find bugs like this 😜 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
